Flying Dog!

We bought Sheldon and airline travel bag today. (We plan on taking him with us on the plane to Minnesota over the holidays) Here is Abhay starting to train him to enter in the bag. Sheldon did a great job...hopped in the bag right away. It's amazing what treats will make a dog do. :) We plan on getting the bag out every evening and getting Sheldon comfortable with it, so when it's time to fly he feels safe and secure in it.

Cooking fun!

We had a fun Sunday of cooking. We made a Beer Butt Chicken (basically it's a whole chicken with a can of beer+butter and spices stuck up the butt and placed on the grill for 2 hours) for the first time. It turned out super delicious. I also made S'more Stuff Brownies. You can find the recipe for them at one of my favorite blogs, Picky Palate. They turned out to die for good.

S'more Stuff Brownies. YUM!!

Niagara Falls

Abhay had the opportunity to go to Buffalo, New York for a training last week. On the last evening of his trip, he was able to go and see Niagara Falls. Here are just a couple of the pictures he took. We're already planning a trip there so I can see it!

Day 45

These are my favorite sandals. Abhay ran over/parked on top of the left one today. :( But in his defense, it was my fault for leaving them in the way. I will be looking for some new ones JUST like these.
